10 Surprising Reasons Nobody Moves to Luxembourg


Why do people purposefully steer clear of Luxembourg?

The country ranks pretty high when talking about the standards of living. The quality of life is great, and a lot of the locals live there comfortably.

But, surprisingly, there are several reasons why many people simply don’t move to Luxembourg, and today, we’ll look at ten reasons…

  1. Quite a bad take. Luxembourg ranks one of the highest or the highest in local purchasing power in Europe. So you earn more than enough for purchasing everything locally.

  2. I'm Luxembourgish (family 300-400 years origins) and I'm pretty disappointed by my country. Maybe it's because my parents had a better life. They could pay a house with 1 wage, not 2 like it is today. I'm also not a friend of Europe anymore because people come here mostly because of the money. They say it's the school system or the health insurance or the free public transport, but what they really mean is the money. Money makes the school system and the health insurance and the public transport possible. It's opportunism all around Europe and Europe is nothing but one big rat race. I'm also disappointed by the traditional luxembourgish people, because loads of them are living on their legacies. Noone of the traditional luxembourgers has any worthwile ambitions. Then you have waiting lines in hospitals, which we never had in the past. You have traffic jams, sometimes even no place in car parks. The biggest festival "Rockafield" has been paused since years. You have a lot of drug traffic on the central railway station, which we never had before. We have a lot of immigration from Eastern Europe who nonetheless are enthused about Putin. I know some who have huge diplomas from eastern universities and still stick to Putin. What else is there to say. On weekends, most wealthy Luxembourgers run around in 2 supermarkets, which are called Concorde or Belle-Etoile. And then, you have to understand that the language problem is very nerve racking for Luxembourgers, because we have to speak 4 languages (lux, french, german, english) on a daily basis and we can't speak 1 outstandingly well. The first question you have to ask everyone you speak to is: "Which language do you want?". That's it EUropeans, bye.

  3. hello boss i am form Pakistan Islamabad my age 29years old i am tig mig ac welder return to Malaysia i need work visa for luxembourg please i am best worker and skill experience 5years please help someone.😌

  4. if you are not fluent in luxembourgish after living there for 7 years then you are intentionally trying not to learn the national language and dont deserve it either. on top of that the state does everything in its power to offer language courses left and right

  5. 7:38 I don't know where you're getting your information but this is complete bullshit. Luxembourg has one of the easiest paths to citizenship for residents out of anywhere in Europe – they had to make it easy, otherwise foreigners would have outnumbered Luxembourgish citizens. Since 2017, the minimum residency time is 5 years, not 7. You have to pass a test of the Luxembourgish language at A2 level, which is very basic, and very easy to achieve quickly if you already speak German. You then just need to pass a civics test, which you can score well at just by reading the constitution and flipping through a history book.

  6. 5:04 "it's like they have a secret language" You mean Luxembourgish?? The national language? It's really no wonder that expats have trouble integrating when so few of them bother to actually learn the local language.
